SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 480,581, dated August9, 1892. Application filed December l, 1891. Serial No. 413,698. (Nomodel.)

To a/ZZ whom, it may conceive.

Be it known that I, WILLIAM M. GEEILICK, of Suttons Bay, in the countyof Leelanaw and State of Michigan, have invented a new and ImprovedSaw-Set, of which the following is a full, clear, and exact description.

The object of the invention is to provide a new and improved saw-set,which is simple anddurable in construction and very effect- Ive 1noperation.

The invention consists of certain parts and details and combinations ofthe same, as will be fully described hereinafter, and then pointed outin the claims.

Reference is to be had to the accompanying drawings, forming a part ofthis specification, in which similar letters of reference indicatecorresponding parts in all the figures.

Figure 1 is a sectional side elevation of the improvement on the line 11 in Fig. 2. Fig. 2 is a transverse section of the same on the line 2 2of Fig. 1. Fig. 3 is a transverse View of the gage. Fig. 4 is alike viewof the sleeve, and Fig. 5 is a similar view of one of the plates foradjusting the punch. Fig. 6 is a side elevation of the improvement asarranged for saws having hard-tempered teeth, and Fig. 7 is asimilarview of the same as arranged for very narrow saw-blades.

rlhe improved saW-setis provided witha suitably-constructed frame A,preferably made in the shape of a standard or block formed with a base Bfor attachment to a bench or other device. A short distance above thebase B on the frame A is formed integral with the frame A the set-blockA', upon which extend the front ends of the arm D D', mounted to slidetransversely on dovetails C, formed in the sides of the frame A. Thearms D D are connected with a cross-arm E and form the gage for thesaw-set, the front ends of the arms extending a suitable distance overthe set-block A', according to the size of the teeth under treatment.The gage is fastened in place on the frame A by means of atransversely-arranged key F, held in the frame A and adapted to engagethe under side of the arms D D', so as to lock the latter in place onthe dovetails C. On the frame A a short distance above the rearcross-bar F. of the gage is formed an offset A2, on which rests the rearend of a sleeve G, fitted over the upper part ot the frame A andprovided with two longitudinally-extending apertures G and G2, formed inthe rear and front side ot' the sleeve, as is plainly shown in Figs. 1and 4. Registering with the openings G' and G2 is an opening A3 in theframe A, and through the registering openings G', A3, and G2 extends anarm H, provided on its front end with a downwardly-extending arm I',formed with an inwardly-extending lug I, arranged relative to theset-block A', according to the width of the saw under treatment, itbeing understood that the arm H is held adjustable longitudinally, andis adapted to be secured in place by a key J, passing through theregistering openings, as is plainly shown in Fig. 1.

In the sleeve G is iitted to slide vertically the punch K, formed at itslower end with a V-shaped extension K', adapted to pass between thefront ends of the gage-arms D D', as is plainly shown in Figs. 1 and 2.The punch K is provided with an elongated aperture K2, through whichpasses the arm H an'd the key J, the aperture being sufficiently long topermit an up-and-down movement of the punch. The upper end of the punchis provided with an opening K3, through which passes the lever L,havingits rear end engaging an aperture A4, formed inthe top of theframe A. The aperture A4 is the fulcrum for the lever which, when movedup and down, raises and lowers the punch K, so that the V-shapedextension K' of the same engages or disengages the tooth of the saw onthe setblock A.

In order to adjust the lug I vertically, keys or plates N are employed,adapted to be arranged under the arm H to raise the latter any desireddegree, according to the nature of the saw under treatment, or the saidplates are Withdrawn from underneath the arm H, so that the latter restswith its bottom on the bottom of the openings G2 in the sleeve G, andconsequently the lug I is lowered accordingly. In the latter case theplates N are placed on top of the key J to fill out the opening G2 andto permit of forcing the key J home to fasten the arm I-I in place, aswill be readily understood by reference to Figs. 1, 6, and 7. Similaradj usting-plates O are used vertically in the sleeve G on one orbothsides of the punch, so as to bring the latter into the proper place IOO.......vwf

with relation to the teeth of the saw to be treated.

It will be seen by reference to Fig. l that the plates O are arranged onboth sides of the punch K, thus holding the latter about inidway on theset-block A. As illustrated in Fig. 6, the plates O are placed in frontof the punch, thus holding the latter in an inner* most position auditspunch endK awayfroin the front edge of the set-block. By placing theplates O between the frame A and the rear face of the punch K, as shownin Fig. 7, the punch end K is moved to the front close to the edge ofthe set-block. Thus it will be seen that by adjusting the plates N thelug I can be raised or lowered relative to the setblock A', and ina likemanner the punch K can be set forward or backward on the setblock A byadjusting the plates O. As the same number of plates N and O are alwaysused, the arm H and its lug I, as Well as the punch K, are held securelyin place on the sleeve G and frame A.

It will be seen that by pressing on the handlever L the punch K is moveddownward so as to press the V-shaped extension K upon the tooth restingon top of the set-block A.

Having thus described my invention, I claim as new and desire to secureby Letters Patent- 0 1. In a saw-set, the combination, with a frameformed with a set-block, of a sleeve held on the said t'rame, an armheldin the said sleeve and provided with alug arranged oppos1te the saidset-block, plates adapted to engage the said arm and sleeve to raise orlower the said vertically in the said sleeve above the said set-block,and plates for adjusting the said punch laterally, substantially asshown and and described.
